    Great mic for small, on the go recording
    5 Stars
    Great mic for small, on the go recording
    Great for on the go recording of voice overs, vocals, or instruments. Has a wheel on the side to adjust the gain so that you don't need to control it in the software. Easy to set up and use on Mac as well as iPhone. The sound quality is great. It comes with a small tripod stand and also an adapter to mount it on a regular microphone stand.
